"I commend PRO1 investigators for their dedication in solving this case immediately even during Christmas and New Year, and the regional director and provincial director of Ilocos Norte for their personal supervision of the case," Calderon said in a statement.
Bataoil told The STAR that Acostas murder was considered solved because the suspects were already identified and the motive was established. Jun Elias
